Push API – nShift

Authentication

Similar to the Pull API, the Push API uses Basic Authentication. The information required consists of the username and password for your organization (image showing the use-case from Postman below).

Endpoints

Orders

1.1. Push orders consolidated

In the past, the API has supported individual endpoints for pushing orders, customers and products. Having a single endpoint for pushing the entire structure ensures better data consistency, making it also easier for the customer to push the full payload, instead of performing separate calls for the required entities.

The purpose of the endpoint is to push orders (including the customer and product data) that can be then further returned by customers in the Returns portal based on the return policy setup in the portal.

URL: POST /push-orders-consolidated

Parameters:

There are no query string or url parameters, but the method requires the caller to send an array of PushOrderConsolidated models in the body of the request.
The properties that are possible on the input JSON are detailed below, split by the sub-objects that they are representative of:
